Sauerkraut My Grandma's Way image

When we were first married my husband wanted me to make sauerkraut like his mother. She did hers on top of the stove and made dumplings on top. It was good, but nothing like what my grandmother made. Now 40 plus years later he never asks for sauerkraut his mother's way.

Categories     Pork

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 lb sauerkraut, slightly drained, i use the bagged variety
3 large onions, sliced
3-4 apples, peeled and sliced
1/2 c brown sugar, firmly packed
3-4 lb pork roast, boston butt or spare ribs
1 tsp granulated garlic with parsley
1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
2 lb kielbasa

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350-degrees.
  • 2. Layer slightly drained sauerkraut, sliced onions and apples in a large roasting pan. Sprinkle with brown sugar.
  • 3. Sprinkle salt, pepper and garlic over pork. Lay on top of sauerkraut. Cover roaster. Bake for 1 3/4 hours.
  • 4. Add kielbasa, cut into 2-3 inch pieces to roaster and continue baking for another 30 minutes.
  • 5. I serve this dish just like my grandma did. Mashed potatoes, homemade applesauce and a good dark rye along with a good beer. Not the prettiest dish color wise with everything being the same color, but delicious never the less.

This is the worst sauerkraut I've ever had. It's sour, bland, and has a weird aftertaste. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

I'm not a big fan of sauerkraut, but I have to admit that this recipe is pretty good. The cabbage is cooked perfectly and the flavor is well-balanced.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my sauerkraut turned out really bland. I think I might have forgotten to add the salt.

This recipe is a bit too sour for my taste. I think I'll try adding a little bit of sugar next time.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover cabbage. I usually make a big batch and then freeze it in portions so I can have it on hand for quick and easy meals.

My oma used to make sauerkraut this way, and it always brings back fond memories. I love the tangy, sour flavor and the way the cabbage cooks down until it's tender. I usually serve it with pork chops or kielbasa and mashed potatoes.
